As one go through the job searches, most of the project management jobs are for the people with civil engineering background.
Certainly not. Project management is required for all types of projects.
Project management is not limited to civil engineering. Any instance where knowledge, skills and techniques are applied efficiently and effectively to execute projects qualifies as project management. Projects need not essentially be artificats like buildings etc., they may even exist as visual artifcats such as a software implementation etc as long as it achieves the particular aim at hand.Once can increase credibility in project management by pursuing certificate courses like Project Management Professional which are highly valued and recognized provided you are experienced.
No of course
Project Management is not only for Civil Engineering, it implements in all types of Engineering and Business!!!
Project Management is a methodology to manage any project whatever its size and type.
Project Management can be for any professional (Anyone who's involved in projects) It's not limited for engineers. The misfortune for middle east especially in countries like Saudi Arabia is they believe engineers are the answers for everything. The concept of "Right man for the Right job" barely exists.
I work with doctors/professors, research scientists and engineers etc at the King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals and Alhamdulillah i'm often in touch with experts of various professional streams and competencies. I've seen doctors/engineers with faces gone pure white and are dumbfounded when faced with business related issues. (Speaking about those with no professional background/certification/training in business). Just as i wouldn't know how to work their field without professional training, the same goes for them with mine.
Project Management skills are needed for initiating, planning, executing, monitoring/controlling and closing of projects especially by managers (Anyone whoes responsible for managing a project or directing a project team especially).
No ; But civil engineers may be have master key for project management and may be preffer
Totally not; but I agree that its most famous there. In addition to Civil, its so famous within IT industry, Telecom, Banking, Health care Industry, and a lot more. The methodology, tools and techniques can be applied to any sector.
